The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Never complain and never explain.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Who seeks shall find.
You never know what motivates you.
Without feeling abashed by my ignorance, I confess that I am absolutely unable to say. In the absence of an appearance of learning, my answer has at least one merit, that of perfect sincerity.
